ASSASINAT1ON PLOTS
Oon. Gnrflold' Peril In 1870
Washington Corrc pondcnce Clertlaml I sdcr.
, It in notfjonorally known tlmt I'rca-
idont Onrfiold was once before , in
1870 , in dntfKor of death by assnsinn-
tibn , but such is said to have boon
the cjwo.
' The electoral cominission , whicli
decided the vexed presidential ques
tion in 1870 , waa composed of five
judges of the supreme court , five sen
ators , and five members of the house
of representatives , two of the latter
being republicans , viz. : Hoar and
'GariiolL ' While the night so si6ns of
.the commission wcro being hold nt
the Capitol , n rumor spread among the
republicans that an attempt would bo
made to kill , kidnap , or disable ono of
the two republican representatives.
The commission stood seven demo
crats , seven republican , and
ono doubtful. If Hoar or Oar-
field could bo removed , the
house , ' being controlled by democrats ,
would not bo likely to sund another
republican to fill the vacancy. Chief
of Police llifchards , of Washington ,
liccaino acquainted with the plot , and
ascertained that no democratic mem
bers of tlio house wore concerned in it ,
but thnt the conspiracy had its origin
in Now York , lie was unable to ob
tain suflicicnt evidence to warrant the
arrest of any parson , and any attempt
- to do BO without strong proof would
have been hooted at ; but it waa
deemed prudent to Imvo Messrs. Gar-
'field and Hoar protected 'by n body
' guard of vigilant friends. This duty
was undertaken by Representative
Thorp , of Ashtabula county , Ohio , D.
W. Wilson , assistant chief of th6 beau-
rcau of engraving nnd printing' nnd
Charles S. Draper , Into deputy sor-
gcant-at-arms of the senate. Any of
thuso gentlemen could verify these
facts. *
When the next evening session of
the commission closed nnd Messrs.
Grvrfiold and Hoar approached their
carriage nt the north front ot the capitol -
itol , a number of apparently idle
spectators who wcro in the open space
and in the colonnade front of the sen
ate fririg advanced toward the two
gentleman. Instantly the throe trusty
friends , each armed with two conceal
ed revolvers , faced the party , who
halted. Two of the escort entered
the carriage with Garfield and Hoar ,
and the other mounted the
box with the driver , all keeping a
brifjht lookout on the way homo , es
pecially at Hoar's hotel and at Gnr-
liold's house at Washington nvnnuo
and I street ; but , though small groups
of lookers-on appeared , no hostile dem
onstrations wore njado.
The next night another session
wnn hold , nnd again the two congress
men wcro guarded by the faithful
friends , nnd the plot , if plot there
was , fell to pieces. Draper wns since
discharged by Sergeant - at - Arms
Bright , after eighteen years' service.
At that time , through fear of ridi
cule , the fnctH were kept secret ; but ,
since the shooting of the president in
a railroad depot , it is easily to realize
that the desperate men who believe in
"rule or rum" would have had no
' scruples against the killing of both
Garnold and Hoar , if necessary for
the accomplishment of the purpose ,
A Boor Marksman.
DuCTalo lihtr Cor. London Mornlnir Post.
I' had n long conversation to-day
with n very intelligent specimen of n
Boer , who forms in Nowcnstlo ono of
the guard that accompanies the Boor
lenders attending on , the commission.
Ho spent the afternoon in my camp ,
and gave me n rehearsal of the differ
ent modes of fighting among fho
Boors. First of nil ho began by try
ing his hand nt shooting at bottles ,
distant' 100 yards , with n fifteen Win-
cheater repeater which I lent him for
the purpose. With this weapon ,
* however , ho failed to accomplish any
decided success , the bullets falling
nil round , but the bottles remained un
touched.
"I can not shoot with your rillo , "
ho observed , "but g ivo mo n Martini-
Honryttnd 1 will pick off two bottles
nt 200 yards. " I sent up to the camp
for u Martini-Henry carbine , which
the Boor laid hold of with a great deal
more apparent confidence , and in the
first two shots verified his boast , for
the bottles were immediately shivered
to atoms. Ho next proceeded to show
mo the Boor mode of shooting from
behind rocks and stones , "The great
mistake your soldiers makeho ob
served , "was to aim over the stone nt
the enemy , but wo always fire round
the corner. " Throwing himself flat
on the ground ho .proceeded to put
this remark into practice , and drag
ging himself lightly' along , peered
cautiously round the right-hand cor
ner of a low atone thnt only just con
cealed his forni from sight of the sup-
posetl enemy , llomovimr his hat , ho
raised it slowly aloft on the top of his
ramrod nnd inuiuuuvred it so ns to
cause it to linyo the appearance of n
man's head cautiously taking note of
the enemy. At. this hut an. English
Boldier is supposed to have taken
\ a pot'shpt , when the Boor suddenly
' , lot it"fall , and'brim-ing his body
J roundptho corner , took steady aim and
fired ut-o , black bottle some ICO yards
distant , which in another moment was
BinashiH ? tb atoms.
Another method of shooting on
horseback ho showed mo in n brilliant
and effective manner. Mounting hm
horne and uttering a loud cry he sent
it galloping up n hill as hard as it
could go. Suddenly , without n warning -
ing the left foot was pressed to the
. . . stirrup , the right leg thrown back
f wards over the saddle , the man was on
his feet and the home stopped install-
taneously if spellbound. Standing
erect the Boor aimed carefully / a
distant bottle nnd knocked it over ,
then sj > ringing into the suddloho execu
ted tlio saino maneuver in two 'oppo
.sito.directions with signal and unerr
ing aim and effect. This man was one
of 180 wio first stormed and tool
HajuW heights. . Ho says that Jou
bert's only words were , "Fellows
take that hill , " and they hastened tc
obey. The reason why so few met
advanced to the attack was bocaust
Joubcrt anticipated and made sure tin
English would endeavor aimultane
ously to take the Nek , us well us sur
priseAhem on their left ; and ho retained
tainod men , to do/vnd the position
mentioned. Finding , however , hi
fears were groundless , he diapatchoi
fresh moil to the assistance of jthei
comrades , "but by the time they - nr
rived the Majuba Hill had been taken
The ninety-second , he informed mo
were the first thoy'cficounlorcd , mid
thiatCRiinont fought stoutly , but were
driven back on tlio plitcnu towards
the Fifty-cightli. Both bravely de
fended the position until Collcy fell ,
when panic , lie affirms , Hoizcd our men ,
1'ho' whole scenii was , however , so en
veloped in smoke that ho could tnuko
no accurate note of niiythitiK and con-
'usion prevailed everywhere. Sir
3corgo Uolloy ho declares to have
been shot while in the net of tyiijg a
white handkerchief to ft ramrod. The
Jeers did not know at the time that
his personage was Sir George. This
a one of the few Uoor versions of
ho Majuba fight that I have hoard
rom men who actually took part in
ho fight advance to storm the pin-
cau. Each tale tallies similarly with
ho other and I am inclined to think
t is truthlully told.
The Two Graven In Poker Valley.
"It wns the curiouscst thing that
jvor happened in the digging , said

Fruit Cniming.
Time for canning fruit is nt hand ,
linta upon this important household
ipcrotion nro therefore seasonable ,
jood canned fruit in n stranger to tales -
> les of thousands of farmers when it
niglit as easily bo used. Fruit is often
oft to Hpoi ) , though n slight oxpondi-
uro would preserve it for winter. It
hey can bo had , berries nro among
he nicest of canned fruits , Peaches ,
ipplos , plums , apricots , and , indeed ,
.11 eatable fruits , are worth catmint ; .
) riod fruits can never wholly take the
ilnco of canned fruits for family nso.
Ilasa jura are preferred by most porous
ous , nnd uro cheapest in the end.
With euro they can be used many
, 'oara , thouih ; new rubber bnndu must
) u procured when needed , In can-
ling , migur shduld certainly bo used ,
and it ahnuld bo of the gran
ulated white grades , ns poor
sugar hurts the flavor of
the fruit. The rule is to put ana
quarter uf n pound of sugar with one
pound of fruit , but this quantity may
bo doubled if the fruit bo unusually
icid. Some persons think that fruit
is good when canned without sugar ,
but in that cose it loses color und'iirm-
ness. The fruit used for canning is
to be of the best quality , and us fresh
ly jrickod ns possible. Well ripened
fruit , not , however , dead ripe and
aoft , is in every way preferable. In
fact , n cannery should really bo locat
ed near the orchards , for there is a
manifest deterioration in the quality
of the fruit between the time it ii
picked and the time it is ready foi
the cans. Coarse-grained market
varieties seldom can BO v ell as the
moro highly flavored kinds. When
the fruit has boon peeled und pitted ,
place it in the preserving kettle and
properly cook ; but if it is still boiling
hot the cans nro to bo filled full , tc
the very brim , and elastic put on , tin
jur wiped , and the ton screwed dowi
at- once , and tightened sovera
times afterwards. As a writer ot
the subject said recently ; "Qooc
frnit , put boiling hot into the perfect
cans , tilled full , and sealed up ntonce ,
will bo fresh nnd pure when opened ,
though years Inter. ' Simply pouring
boiling wntcr over fruit dotano expel
the nir. Partly filjed fruit jars will
swnl. Canned-berries nro to bo put in
a preserving kettle , with layers of
sugnr , nnd boiled from five to fifteen
minutes. The syrup can bo bottled
up , some of it , for other uses. Some
lorsons prefer to cook berries in the
1 , ! nra in which they nro to bo canned.
In this case the jnrs , filled up with
Fruit , nro Rot in n wash boiler , on wood-
Mi slats , m > nn not to touch the bet
tom. Cold wntcr is poured in until it
coinos'closo to the rims of the jam ,
nnd heated until the fruit is well cook
ed , when the fruit in one jar ia used
to fill up the others , and they nro seal
ed and put nwny. Wo may add that
lass jnrs < f fruit should be tint in a
3ry , dark , nnd cool place , wiitretho
tomperaluro is cqunblo throughout the
season.

"Wound.
Wilmington ( Del. ) Eiery Evening.
July 22. The battle of Chancel-
orsvillo , ono of the fiercest engage
ments of tlio war , lasted from May 1
to May C , 18G3. Among these who
were wounded , in the conflict was
Shnrlcs B. Parry , of this city , a mem
ber of the First Delaware regiment.
The ballj from n Minio rifle , entered
the pelvis and has never been found ,
though numerous operations for that
purpose have been performed. The
: onsequonco was n wound that never
lualou , and caused the death of the
victim at 8:30 : o'clock' last evening.
Mr. Parry was of English descent , but
a native of this. city , and son of
Robert II. Parry. lie served with
loner ar.d wns noted for his bravery ,
in the First Delaware , irom its cre
ation to the time of receiving his
wound. For the past two years ho
tias boon crier of the United States
district court , having boon appointed
: o that position upon the death of
John Curry. _ Ho is spoken of in terms
of i the very highest uraiso by nil the
officers of the court. Mr. Parry has
> ccn an almost constant sufferer from
! io time the wound was received.
Vftcr the war ho visited England ,
vhoro two unsuccessful orer.itions
vero performed. Operations attended
with like results wcro also performed
n Now York and nt the University of
Ponnsylvnnia. Wlulo the wound
could bo kept open Mr. Parry would
ullor but little , but when the dis
charge closed his condition became
oriwus. Mr. Parry was sv widower ,
md nbout forty years of ngo. Ho was
